Abstract
A dispersing apparatus that can efficiently disperse agglomerated particles in a slurry at a lower energy, a method for preparing a ceramic slurry containing ceramic particles that have been dispersed with the dispersing apparatus, a reliable monolithic ceramic electronic component manufactured using ceramic green sheets formed of the ceramic slurry, and a method for manufacturing the monolithic ceramic electronic component. A slurry containing agglomerated particles is passed through a dispersing section to produce a tensile stress, and the tensile stress is applied to the agglomerated particles in the slurry, thereby dispersing the agglomerated particles. The dispersing section includes a nozzle, a first channel thorough which a jet generated through the nozzle passes, and a cylindrical second channel through which the jet coming through the first channel passes to produce a tensile stress. The nozzle, the first channel, and the second channel are disposed in that order from the upstream side to the downstream side.
